Description

Application of Article 30, Paragraph 2 of the Patent Law, entitled "A4 size leaflet entitled" Grave Mile "" and "Grave Mile" released by Oki Seki Co., Ltd. from July 10 to 31, 2017. A3 size pamphlet

The present invention relates to a technology of a server system that communicates with a mobile terminal having a display unit via a network.

When a relative or acquaintance asks for the location of the deceased's grave, it can be difficult to tell. The biggest reason for this is that there is no address in the grave. For example, if the tomb is in a reien, it is possible to tell the name and address of the reien to the person who asked for the location of the reien, but it is difficult to explain where the tomb is in the reien. Depending on the reien, each grave is assigned a section / number, but the person asked for the location of the grave may feel that it is not enough to give only the information on the section / number of the grave. Also, the person who asks may be worried whether such information alone will lead to the grave.

It is known that information on the deceased can be seen and heard in AR at the place of the grave (see: Patent Document 1). However, this patent document does not disclose a mechanism for communicating the location of the tomb.

Patent No. 5780372

Recent mobile terminals such as smartphones are equipped with GPS sensors and cameras, and when shooting with the camera, it is possible to include the position data (longitude / latitude information) of the shooting location in the photo data. If you send such photo data to the person who asked for the location of the grave, the person who asked for it can know the location of the grave by using the map function provided through the Internet (for example, Google Maps). Also, if the location of the grave is registered in Google Maps or the like instead of the photo data, the location information of the grave can be sent to the person who asked. However, the person who asks is not always able to fully utilize such a function. In addition, the provider of photo data and location information has no choice but to respond each time they are asked, which is a great effort.

On the other hand, even if you can master the map function on the Internet, it is still difficult to reach a grave without an address. For example, if you display a map on the Internet on a mobile terminal and provide route guidance with the location of the grave (position data included in the photo data) as the destination, you can reach the destination, but you cannot reach the destination. there is a possibility. In particular, there is an error in the position data measured by the GPS sensor, and depending on its size, there is a possibility that the route guidance to the vicinity of the destination will end. Since similar types of tombs are often lined up around the destination, it is difficult to find the destination grave from there if the route guidance on the map ends around the destination.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a technology of a server system capable of easily telling the location of a grave and appropriately guiding the location of the grave.

As shown in FIG. 4, the grave information DB331 (grave information storage unit) stores information on the name of the deceased, the position of the grave, the section / number of the grave, the photograph of the grave, and the reference point in association with the deceased ID. ing. The position of the grave is the location of the deceased's grave, specifically the longitude and latitude where the deceased's grave is located. Information on the position (longitude and latitude) of such a grave can be obtained by photographing the grave using, for example, a mobile terminal having a GPS function and a camera function. The grave section / number is, for example, used by the reien for the management of individual graves and is assigned by the reien. The photograph of the tomb is a photograph of the deceased's tomb, and one or more photographs are stored. The photo of the tomb should be a photo of the tomb in the reien. The reference point refers to a reference object around the tomb, for example, a reien management office, a water fetching place in the reien, a reien gate, an entrance, an exit, and the like. The reference point can be inside or outside the reien, for example, the positional relationship with the tomb (for example, the direction and distance of the tomb as seen from the reference point) such as a large tree, a large road, a building, or a store. Anything that can be used as a marker is sufficient. The information of the reference point to be stored may be, for example, the name of the reference point, its explanation (explanation of the reference point itself, explanation of the positional relationship between the reference point and the grave, etc.) and a photograph of the reference point. can. Further, the position information (longitude and latitude) of the reference point is also acquired by taking a picture using, for example, a mobile terminal having a GPS function and a camera function, and is stored in the grave information DB 331, like the position information of the grave.

Other data will be sent as well. For example, the transmission unit 323 refers to the grave information DB 331, transmits information such as a photograph of the grave and a reference point around the grave to the mobile terminal 120 during route guidance, and displays the information on the touch panel 211.

Here, the server system 130 is not particularly limited as long as it has the above-mentioned function, and may be cloud computing or the like. When the server system 130 is composed of a plurality of computers, for example, it can be divided into a computer for each functional unit of the arithmetic processing unit 320 and a computer for each database (331 to 333) of the storage unit 330. can. Further, the computer can be separated for each functional unit of the arithmetic processing unit 320. For example, a computer for the receiving unit 321 and the transmitting unit 323 (which serves as a direct interface with the user) and a computer for the determining unit 322 (which acts as an intermediary between the former computer and the computer for the storage unit 330). ) And.

Next, an example of a series of processing flows in the information processing system 100 will be described with reference to FIG. At that time, with reference to FIG. 6, an example of a screen displayed on the touch panel 211 when the user (C) uses the software of the grave visit guidance service on the mobile terminal 120 will be described.

First, the registrant operates the client terminal 110 to input the grave information of the deceased (S10). This is received by the server system 130 and stored in the grave information DB 331 (S11). As shown in FIG. 4, the deceased grave information includes at least the deceased's name and the position of the grave, and optionally includes information on the grave section / number, the photograph of the grave, and the reference point.

The user (C) operates the mobile terminal 120 to start an application for using the grave visit guidance service provided by the server system 130, and enters his / her own ID and password to log in (see S20:). FIG. 6A). After logging in, a list including one or more deceased persons (a list of deceased persons who can provide route guidance) is sent from the server system 130 to the mobile terminal 120 regarding the route guidance of the deceased grave that can be provided to the user (C), and the touch panel 211. One or more deceased persons are displayed selectably (see: pull-down list 400 in FIG. 6B). The current position information of the mobile terminal 120 is acquired by the GPS device 240 (S21). When the user (C) further operates the mobile terminal 120 and selects the deceased who wants the route guidance to the grave from the displayed route guidance available deceased list, the grave of the deceased is set as the destination. The route guidance request is received by the mobile terminal 120 and transmitted to the server system 130 (S22). As an example, as shown in FIG. 6B, "Patent Taro" is selected as the deceased who wants route guidance from the list of deceased persons who can provide route guidance in the pull-down list 400, and the "direction guidance" of the icon 410 is selected. When tapped (input), a request for route guidance to the grave of "Patent Taro" is transmitted from the mobile terminal 120 to the server system 130.

The server system 130 receives the route guidance request and the current location information of the mobile terminal 120 (S23). Then, the server system 130 transmits information (destination information) about the deceased's grave to the mobile terminal 120 (S24) and displays it on the touch panel 211 (S25). As shown in FIG. 6C, for example, the destination information includes an index 420 indicating the position of the deceased grave, the grave section / number 421, a map 422 around the grave, a photo 423 of the grave, and a mobile terminal 120. Information about the distance 424 from the current position to the tomb. The index 420 can take any form, but here, the shape of the tomb is drawn in a circle. In the map 422, the index 420 is located in the center of the map 422, and the tomb section number 421 is displayed near the index 420. The grave section / number 421 and the photograph 423 are registered in the grave information DB 331 (see: deceased ID “1” in FIG. 4). When you tap the icon displaying the photo 423 of the tomb, the photo is enlarged and displayed as shown in FIG. 6D. The display mode of the map 422 can be switched between an aerial photograph or a map, and when the "aerial photograph" of the icon 430 is tapped, the check mark is removed from the icon 430 and the display is switched to the map display (see: Figure). 7A, 7B). The distance 424 to the grave is displayed as "measuring" in FIG. 6C, but when the measurement is completed, a specific numerical value such as "100 m more" is displayed as shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B.

Subsequently, when the user (C) operates the mobile terminal 120 and selects the movement mode to the destination grave (S26), the server system 130 that receives this selects the route according to the selected movement mode. The search is performed (S27), and the route guidance is transmitted to the mobile terminal 120 (S28). When the mobile terminal 120 receives the route guidance (S29), the route guidance is displayed on the touch panel 211 (S30). Here, the movement mode includes modes such as car, walking, public transportation (train, bus, etc.), bicycle, etc., of which at least cars and walking are included. On the screen shown in FIG. 6C, a car icon 440 and a walking icon 442 are displayed so that a car and walking movement mode can be selected. Then, for example, when the car icon 440 is tapped as shown in FIG. 6E, the server system 130 starts a route search according to the selected movement mode "car" and guides the route as shown in FIG. 6F. Is provided to the mobile terminal 120. Here, route search and route guidance can be executed by the function of a map (for example, Google map) provided through the Internet. That is, the server system 130 accesses map data (provided through the Internet) having various data including roads, buildings, current traffic conditions, etc., and route search / route according to the selected movement mode. Guidance is provided to the mobile terminal 120.

The display of the route guidance in S30 begins with the route guidance (R10) on the map (see: FIG. 6F). Similar to the display mode of the map 422 described above, at least a map and an aerial photograph are prepared as the display mode of the route guidance. During route guidance, the location information of the mobile terminal 120 is sent to the server system 130 at any time (S31), and the route guidance information displayed on the touch panel 211 is updated at any time according to the change in the current position of the mobile terminal 120. To. Until it is determined that the current position of the mobile terminal 120 has approached a predetermined range from the destination (S32: No), the display mode (R10) on the map is continued (see: FIG. 6F). That is, when the mobile terminal 120 is outside the predetermined range from the position of the deceased's grave, the route guidance (R10) on the map continues to be displayed on the touch panel 211.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the current position of the mobile terminal 120 has approached a predetermined range from the destination (S32: Yes), the display mode (R20) on the aerial photograph is switched to (S35; see FIG. 6G). That is, when the mobile terminal 120 approaches within a predetermined range from the position of the deceased's grave, the route guidance (R20) on the aerial photograph is displayed on the touch panel 211. After that, the route guidance information on the aerial photograph displayed on the touch panel 211 is updated at any time according to the change in the current position of the mobile terminal 120.

Here, the "predetermined range" that serves as a reference for switching the display from the route guidance (R10) on the map to the route guidance (R20) on the aerial photograph is a predetermined radial distance, a straight line distance, or a walking time from the destination. Can be used. For example, the "predetermined range" can be set to a radial distance or a linear distance of 10 m, 20 m, or 50 m from the destination, or can be set to a walking time of 30 seconds or 1 minute from the destination. Further, the "predetermined range" may be one that can be adjusted by the user (C). For example, the user (C) adjusts the default "predetermined range" (for example, 10 m from the destination) using his / her mobile terminal 120, and sets the adjusted predetermined range (for example, 5 m from the destination) on the mobile. It may be transmitted from the terminal 120 to the server system 130. Further, the size of the "predetermined range" may be changed according to the selected movement mode. For example, when the movement mode is walking, the size of the "predetermined range" may be smaller than when the movement mode is a car.

Further, in one embodiment, the display may be switched from the route guidance (R10) on the map to the route guidance (R20) on the aerial photograph only when the movement mode is “walking”. For example, when "car" is selected as the movement mode and route guidance is performed, the current position of the mobile terminal 120 is within a predetermined range from the destination on condition that the movement mode is switched to "walking". It may be determined whether or not the vehicle has approached, and if it is determined that the vehicle has approached, the display may be switched from the route guidance (R10) on the map to the route guidance (R20) on the aerial photograph. The movement mode can be switched from "car" to "walking" by the user (C) operating his / her own mobile terminal 120. Alternatively, the speed or acceleration of the mobile terminal 120 is detected (for example, it is detected by using an acceleration sensor (not shown) mounted on the mobile terminal 120), and based on the detection result, the mobile terminal 120 or the server system 130 is mobile. It may be determined that the user (C) possessing the terminal 120 has switched the means of transportation from the car to the walking, and the movement mode of the route guidance may be switched from the "car" to the "walking".

Further, in one embodiment, the touch panel 211 may display an information window containing a photograph of the deceased's grave before switching the display from the route guide (R10) on the map to the route guide (R20) on the aerial photograph. Good (S33). FIG. 6H is an example of a screen displayed when the mobile terminal 120 approaches a predetermined range from the position of the deceased's grave (in the case of Yes in S32), and is displayed before the screen of FIG. 6G (screen of S35). Is to be done. As shown in FIG. 6H, the touch panel 211 does not display the route guide (R10) on the map, and displays the information window 452 including the photograph 450 of the grave which is the destination. Here, as the photograph 450 of the tomb, a photograph different from the one of the above-mentioned deceased ID "1" is used. The information window 452 includes a field 460 showing a photograph 450 of the grave, a field 462 indicating that future route guidance will be switched from a map to an aerial photograph, and a field 464 for closing the information window 452. have. When the "close" of the field 464 is tapped, the information window 452 is closed (S34) and the route guidance (R20) on the aerial photograph is displayed (S35. See: FIG. 6I). In this way, by popping up the information window 452 before switching the display mode of the route guidance, the mode of the route guidance is changed to the user (C) who is accustomed to the route guidance in which the display mode is not generally switched. You can let us know in advance. When switching from the route guidance (R10) on the map to the route guidance (R20) on the aerial photograph, for example, the screen of FIG. 6F may be changed to the screen of FIG. 6I. That is, it is not necessary to go through the screens of FIGS. 6G and H.

As described above, an example of the screen of the route guidance (R20) on the aerial photograph is FIG. 6G, and another example is FIG. 6I, but FIG. 6I is more user-friendly. As shown in FIG. 6I, the touch panel 211 has a first display area 471 that displays a route guide (R20) on an aerial photograph, a second display area 472 that displays a photograph 450 of a grave, and the grave. It has a third display area 473 that indicates the distance.
